Jerry Jones is losing his patience after an exhausting offseason with the Dallas Cowboys. CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott want big contract extensions, but, the team’s front office hasn’t reached the number expected by both stars.

Prescott’s situation is the most complicated because the quarterback has all the leverage to work with. He is set to become an unrestricted free agent in 2025 and Jones cannot stop him as the franchise isn’t an option.

Although the controversial owner believes Dak is the key to win a Super Bowl, he is not willing to make him the highest paid player ever in the NFL. Time is running out.

Why Dak Prescott hasn’t signed with the Dallas Cowboys?

Jerry Jones showed his frustration with what’s happening in the NFL. According to the owner, more players aren’t willing to respect their current contracts asking for big money boosts earlier than expected. It’s important to remember that Dak Prescott is under contract for the 2024 season.

“One of the things that I’d like for the fans to really understand is that nine times out of 10, these are existing contracts that you have in place. And you should be able to operate under those but we’ve gotten it now in the NFL, other teams are dealing with it too, where with time left on the contract you still might have a contract discussion. That’s what we’re doing. But none of us, players or teams, want it to hurt the preparation or the likelihood of playing at your best opening day.”
